Another vouch for Applewood.........I am vapin Peachwood right now..Thats good as well but not as delish as the Vanilla Blend...

I also have butter rum, carmelized cap, texas watermelon, and malibu pineapple which I reccomend also


Hey Todd, how's it going brutha?! The MOV applewood is getting better IMO, if you haven't broken it out lately, you should soon! I'm guessing another week or so and it will be peaking. I don't know that it will ever reach the complexity and earthiness of the great VR applewood, but then it's "lighter, in taste, not as "dark" so probably not fair to hold it to that standard anyway. Crisp and yummy and should be judged on its own merits. These are both the best apple flavors I've had to date.

CT !!.....I tried the MOV Applewood again last night...definately getting better !!...Actually starting to get a tad bit more of apple taste to it..Wasn't really worried though as I know most of MOV needs at least a couple days steeping...I am out of Vermillions but I know VR's is better @ this point....That one will be hard to top....Man....This Peachwood has aged perfectly..pearfect peach sweetness...Not overpowering at all...It will be a sad day when this one's gone...One day, I know I will be making a big order from them....Not for awhile though....My Plume Room went out for delivery already !!!! Sweet

Oh man a juice Junkie thread filled with enablers, I should fit right in, lol. I just counted the other night and I have over 70 bottles of juice from around 10 different vendors and if that isn't enough I recently found the co-op's which Im in four of and now I'm a co-op Junkie as well. My biggest Juice obsession is NET's (naturally extracted tobaccos). Seems like there is a new vendor every week coming out with a new net. Suffice to say this isn't turning out to be a cheaper habit. But it sure is a lot more fun.

I'm addicted to buying just about anything vape related, but since taste is so subjective it's way more difficult with juice. There's probably at least a dozen juice vendors I want to try (HHV, KBV, Flavorz by Joe, Namber (when it comes out...), the list goes on...). They all just sound so good! At almost every place I've ordered juice from, even if I'm only there for one or two juices I'll still throw in a few samples on top of it, because why not? Some are just a curiosity, some are recommended by other vapers, some just sound good. Most of them never get finished because even if they're "good," there are a few that are so amazing that I don't want to put them down long enough to finish the others! Smoking may have actually been cheaper than this has become, but I got no enjoyment out of it any more. This is actually fun. :D

I'm shutting myself off, as of right now. Two orders placed, should get me through the next couple of months. I am such a noob that I like testing out new things (and such is my personality...I don't have a signature perfume and I never wear the same eye shadow twice, it seems) but enough is enough. Putting a moratorium on my juice buying. If the zombies come, I have a B&M store 20 minutes away...I think I can make it. Carl's never in the house, why should I be? ;)

I think I'd be better-off handing my bank cards to my ex-wife ! I keep ordering STUFFFF ! :laugh:

I wonder if part of it is the fact I AM still feeding an addiction. Like they say cigarette addiction isn't JUST the nicotine, it's the hold, sticking in mouth, lighting, and all the other habits tied together.

Vaping means keeping the vapor-belt moving. Better devices, better juices, MORE PLEASE ! :w00t: HEY ! CAN I TASTE YOUR JUICE ??? :pervy::pervy::pervy:

It will be our little secret. Well and the other 2000 ECF viewers who are likely to see this at some point or another. But the habit is so much fun I refuse to feel too guilty.

Guilt is a product of socialization and can be a tool to suppress individualism and man, was I well socialized!!! :) I see it as a plus of the late sixties that I have learnt to 'thumb my nose' and follow completely my own conscience. I wasn't given intelligence for nothing.
Cheers and Vape on!!

I've been keeping an exhaustive database of all hardware, juice, and supplies I've purchased in 28 months of vaping.

Retail Juices: 16 liters (16,258ml) for $5,724.64 ($0.35/ml average)
DIY supplies (flavorings, liquid nic, and PG/VG): $1,438.15

The total spent may seem staggering, but it's a lot less than some rich people spend on their "hobbies" (such as collecting Ferraris or Porsches, LOL).

I don't know what's worse, stalking the postman or stalking my emails knowing that there will be processing time before shipment.

Amy, don't stalk em just keep well ahead and look forward to parcel arrivals!!! LOL U might put the postman off.
That is the trouble you learn so much about Juice and gadgets on these forums it becomes gotta try!!
Cheers and enjoy your vapes!

:blink: LOL No really, if you have enjoyed it and it keeps you away from the nasty smokes, then I don't see anything wrong with it!! I would be afraid to know what I spent over the years that I smoked!!! THAT is a scary thought!

Wow. I'm on the same boat. But I've settled down a bit. I've been vaping for 4 months and the first 2 months I've collected 5 months worth of juice. I was buying only 1oz thinking why buy 10ml samples for half the price. I also bought 2 4oz. Bottles from tasty vapors. I'm still on the search but I have limited myself to buying when I'm down to 1 month of juice left. But then again 2 weeks later I bought a sample pack at vape venue smh.

I also just found out that ejuice have a 8 month shelf life.

And 90 percent of those retail purchases were RY4's, bought for research purposes for the big RY4 round up thread

Well, I guess I am lucky- I have only bought 1000ml in two weeks, (well, that and the 200 ml I just bought before I came here again tonight).
We Vapers must support the US economy:laugh:

Totally agree - www.aliceinvapeland.com just got several 100's of me he he he

A few others will get a big order soon too! Just deciding who is next :)
